I think a more apt title would be "The only things you should say to police are 'Yes Sir, No Sir And Thank you Sir' and the only thing you should do in an altercation with police is exactly what they tell you" Honestly people, the side of the road is not the fucking place to argue a traffic citation, that's what courts are for. This guy didn't exactly have a tazin' comin' but he didn't do anything to prevent it either.
I think a more apt username for you, naharnafuckingdumb, would be 'mindlesssheep911'. Or maybe 'fuckingidiot', as it's simpler and just as appropriate.
no kidding. was it worth it to not sign it? uh, yeah, right. now he's laying in the dirt with a tazer experience under his belt AND arrested AND a seriously freaked out girlfriend left to drive herself home and bail out boyfriend later. nice
Exercise some judgment. This is a case of a total abuse of authority. Your second sentence just shows how grossly out of proportion the cop's reaction was to the first. All the cop had to do was point out the court date to dispute the violation and hand the driver his ticket, sign or unsigned.
IMO it was deserved.. what was the cop supposed to do? grab the guy? get into a physical confrontation? The guy was not listening, he should have just followed directions.
Nope, really was the cop just supposed to let the guy walk away, get in his car and drive off? The guy was not listening, end of story. Dont do what a cop says you go to jail. walk away when a cop tells you to turn around, bang your taz'd. Argue your ticket in court. Not on the side of the road where anything can happen.
he wouldn't sign a traffic ticket. that's it.he wasn't drunk or acting even potentially violent.. Officer noob tased him when he was walking away. He posed no threat whatsoever. A taser supposed to be a second to last resort. Only when absolutely needed. If you really think this was justified then you're stupid.
You guys are hilarious with the way you would handle everthing as a cop you would have everyone walinking all over you anot listening to any comand you gave and would eventually be shot or stabed... obey athority (period)
fucking shit... i hate to say this, but i have to agree with dik. a traffic violation is only a civil infraction, he should have never asked the guy out of the vehicle, there isnt justification for him to arrest the guy either, though the dumbass should have just said ok, thanks pig, see ya in court. the cop really can only give the guy the ticket reguardless if he signs it or not.. ive been there, fucking cops around here have nothing to do but pull you over for nothing just so they can write a ticket. fuck you dik.
Are these idiots for real? "Dont do what a cop says and you go to jail." "obey authority (period)". Can this many people really be that fucking oblivious? I was expecting one moron, two at most, to support the cop and then get their asses ripped apart by everyone else, not half the fucking site to be so stupid as to actually think that pig was justified. Goddamnit, people are dumb.
Basically, did you see how the guy came towards the cop in a threatening manner? He obviously was acting like a stupid ass idiot, and plus the cop didn't even search him, so no telling if he had a knife or anything, you got to look at it from his point of view, cops get trained to always "expect the worst".
The threatening manner must have been the whole hand-at-his-side-while-other-hand-points-in-oppisite-direction kind of threatening manner. The guy in the SUV as just trying to plead his case and then the cop freaks out and points a tazer at him. I would want to get back in my car too if a cop did that to me.
You guys seem to miss the point if you do what the cop says and still get tazed then the cop is at full fault and will likely get bent over sideways in court and you make out like a bandit.. if you comply and then go to court the only way you loose is if your in the wrong... how is this not sound advice?
I've personally never seen a more obvious case of excessive force involving a taser..this cop will likely or probably has already lost his job over this
All that had to happen was for him to write up the ticket, and wave bye. Here in Ohio, they don't even LET you sign any fucking ticket. Why? Probably because some brother has already been through this, albeit with another type of weapon (hint: bang bang).
Here's what you have to do if you don't want any tickets:
1. Have a camera running in the car. You want something to record a couple of hours of audio and video. I think you can get digital ones that will record over the earlier stuff when you run out of space, so you always get the last hour or so recorded without switching tapes.
2. Give the cop the papers he asks for. There's no point arguing here. Every question should be answered with "I would like to decline to answer that question."
3. If you are asked to do anything more than show your papers, the answer is "Officer, am I under arrest?" You do not consent to anything.
4. Once he's done writing your ticket or not writing it, you inform him that you have to go take the serial number from his radar unit.
Now, what happens is that you go to court, and they have only one witness against you (the radar unit.) All those questions they normally ask are to trick you into saying something they can use against you if you fight the ticket. If you haven't answered, they have nothing.
So the only witness against you is the radar unit. Now you're probably home free. They have to prove a bunch of points about how that radar unit has been configured, tested, and used. Probably they can't. They will resort to hearsay and lies to try to, but you just raise objections and none of it matters. The fact is, most of the radar units aren't good enough of witnesses (they won't be able to produce the testing certificate, your car wasn't in the narrow area where that thing is accurate when the cop read the speed, etc.) The simple fact is, those things are junk and the only time they'll ever test or do any maintenance on them is if they are underestimating speeds. Moving radar is even worse. Anyone pulled over by that should definitely fight, because whether you were speeding or not, the cop has no fucking idea, in truth.
Even if you lose, once you fight a few tickets you will never be pulled over in your town again.
sorry wanko, take him to court with all your expert advise, and the judge will look at you and say, if thats what the officer said you were doing, thats what you were doing. now please pay your ticket on the way out. next case please. really its not that i dont agree with you. if you dont argue with the cop, you usually dont get into more shit, but please refer to my statement above about the pigs that work around here.
If you present the proper case law, the police are generally fucked. There are a few points about the radar unit being certified, calibrated, installed correctly, etc, that are almost impossible for prosecution to satisfy. They can't prove those fucking things work (because most of the time they don't.) If all fails, you are guaranteed one appeal anyway.
Plus you can always hope the pig doesn't show up, in which case you've basically won unless you do something real stupid. Apparently it happens a lot in some places, though I've never been that lucky.
Here's the whole video. The sign seems to be a temporary construction sign. The cop has obviously decided to pull over the guy's car before he has even reached the 40 sign (he couldn't even have a radar reading at this point). After that he may have used moving radar but only for a few seconds max while the vehicle traveled a couple hundred yards. The cop also seems to have no idea how fast the guy was going, only that it was 'too fast'.
The full video goes on a little longer to catch the cop lying to the girl ("I told him I was placing him under arrest") and to the other cop that shows up (claimed he said "turn around right now or I'll tase you.")
A lot of bother to give out a ticket that is based on nothing and won't hold up in court anyway. I love how they spend my tax dollars.
it's amazing how much authority police has in most western states. Here, in Romania, if you were caught speeding AND drunk , you'd get your license suspended for 3 months (but you'd be able to get it out in 1) and fined ~200 dollars. 75-70% of street cops will take bribe and you'll be homefree. Once , there was a influent guy that ran over a kid on a street crossing. The police later painted it 10 meters further so the guy could not be prosecuted. And we don't have tazers, normal cops aren't allowed to shoot, only in extreme cases, when they're already injured.
He got his ass tasered because he didn't follow the Officers orders. He should have put his hands behind his back as soon as the cop told him to do it.
Tha's what happens when you don't listen ta Mommy and Daddy and da big, smart autority people who know evwyting! Even dough I'ma adult, I dunno howta tink for myself! *Dribble*
I hope this cockbag of a cop goes to jail. Taser's are meant to be used as second to last resort as someone pointed out. He did nothing wrong. When someone refuses to sign, the cop simply writes on the ticket "Refused to sign" And when the court date comes, it makes it harder for them to contest anything. You people are fucking retarded if you honestly beleive this cop was in his rights to do what he did. He even lied to the other cop after the incident about what happend. Now this video is all over the net, im pretty sure his career is over.
I believe the officer was justified for what he did, for one; the argumentative asshole is not complying with the officerâs requests. As the guy slowly turns around to go back to his car, his right hand slips into his pocket. For all the officer knew, he could have been reaching for something.. I would have done the same thing if some guy who thought he was a know it all slipped his hands in his pockets and walked slowly away like this guy's mannerisms showed; The officer handled it to the best of his ability being the only one there.
Hahaha you fucking retard. The cop had no right to ask him to step out of the vehicle. Like it's been said, you have the right to refuse to sign a ticket, and all the cop can do at that point is write it on your record. The cop can only ask you to get out of the car if they suspect you're under the influence of something or was doing something illegal, which obviously that affluent and clear-speaking man and his wife/girlfriend weren't. But then, cops do this all the time, and then just lie about the facts later. Something very similar happened to my uncle not too long ago. Luckily, this cop had a camera recording him, so we can only hope he's lost his job and is never allowed on the force again. I'm amazed at how many ignorant fucks on here have already said that pig was justified. You fucking sheep need to do some research.
Gottios, you moron. You have to sign the ticket - it isn't an admittance of guilt. If you refuse in California, you get arrested, period. He had every right to taze the asshole driver. The punk was showing off for his girlfriend. Yeah, he's big and tough looking while he does the bacon dance on the highway.
Gottlos and Triscope, you don't even know what research is... and if your gonna talk shit over the internet, atleast give me your address so i can come find you.. kids..
Comments to Cop Tasers Man Over Speeding Ticket
LSD to the rescue!
"really officer, i dont know what you are doing..."
I am tazering your ass, son.
Really, people need to listen.
Cop's are quick to jump the gun with shit like this just so they can get some "action".
mmm...seems justified to me. He sounds like that "Don't tazz me dude" guy.
wtf.. where was tazz in this whole video?
Upper right hand corner, he appears at 2:33 for a split second.
Quick to jump the gun? The guy has his hands in his pockets and continues to walk towards the truck after repeated commands to turn around.
Wow, he did the escalation of force pretty quickly. Sucks to be that dude.
al qaeda, ira, eta, terrorists my ass. we all know who the real terrorits are. the fukin "protectors" of the law
Damn right... The Brown Shirts never really went away.
agreed!
Fuck cops...they're ALL corrupt...Legalize Marijuana
all yo mommas is corrupt.
This vid should be titled Maybe Now White Folks Can Understand Why Blacks & Latinos Don't Trust Cops.
They can't understand.
Agree!
i don't understand.
I think a more apt title would be "The only things you should say to police are 'Yes Sir, No Sir And Thank you Sir' and the only thing you should do in an altercation with police is exactly what they tell you" Honestly people, the side of the road is not the fucking place to argue a traffic citation, that's what courts are for. This guy didn't exactly have a tazin' comin' but he didn't do anything to prevent it either.
you've got to be kidding
Baa baa baaaa baaaaa baaaaaaa.
^^ if everyone were such an obsequious bitch, you would be living under a constant dictate. oh wait, you are.
I think that guy's name is Mike Hanrahan.
The guy at the top, naharnahekim.
I googled mike hanrahan. There are many. One of them is in a movie called 'Hank and Mike'. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814131/
Wooh. Spooky coincidence.
that guy is getin paid thou after he sues that cop!
I think a more apt username for you, naharnafuckingdumb, would be 'mindlesssheep911'. Or maybe 'fuckingidiot', as it's simpler and just as appropriate.
no kidding. was it worth it to not sign it? uh, yeah, right. now he's laying in the dirt with a tazer experience under his belt AND arrested AND a seriously freaked out girlfriend left to drive herself home and bail out boyfriend later. nice

agree wit averagemale!!!
.very excessive shit right here.tasers are a huge issue in canada right now. couple of noobs got dead after being tased recently
i think i heard the chick say "I'm calling the cops!"
for some TASE FEST!
that was fucking hilarious
"officer I dont know what your doing"
haha classic
IMO it was deserved.. what was the cop supposed to do? grab the guy? get into a physical confrontation? The guy was not listening, he should have just followed directions.

I love these fucking robots like BoobRooney. Obey. Obey. Obey.
You guys are hilarious with the way you would handle everthing as a cop you would have everyone walinking all over you anot listening to any comand you gave and would eventually be shot or stabed... obey athority (period)
Yes, Lord Vader!
You'd make a really good slave, IGoPP.
If I was a cop I'd get fired because I'd only enforce real laws, not tase people over contractual disputes.
ya this is a administrative issue for christ's sake
fucking shit... i hate to say this, but i have to agree with dik. a traffic violation is only a civil infraction, he should have never asked the guy out of the vehicle, there isnt justification for him to arrest the guy either, though the dumbass should have just said ok, thanks pig, see ya in court. the cop really can only give the guy the ticket reguardless if he signs it or not.. ive been there, fucking cops around here have nothing to do but pull you over for nothing just so they can write a ticket. fuck you dik.

You've got to be kidding!
hahaha
He won't lose his job, dik. What are you talking about?
i would give him a promotion...he's an american hero
i've seen cops lose their jobs for less obvious cases of excessive force. But they were probably more brutal
where and when was this??
Was that in Canada?
no probaly the states
I don't know where this is, but I assume America somewhere.
There's a lot more obvious cases of excessive force and none of those cops get fired.
on film? I'm not sayin this is really extreme. I'm just saying this is what it would say in a cop textbook as an example of excessive force
I'm glad they didn't have tasers when i was younger
maybe he woont get fired because of lack of permanent damage ..but let's say he used his baton instead of the taser. like on his head
i just saw this video on cnn right now.
Dik, they didn't even have guns when you were younger, you old fart
They had 6 shooters and winchester rifles.
I was thinking sticks and unkind words.
I hope this guy lost his job.

He got his ass tasered because he didn't follow the Officers orders. He should have put his hands behind his back as soon as the cop told him to do it.
Hhahaahh.
He shouldn't have gotten out of the car to begin with, you noob.
I think the cop should have shot the dude in the head, fucked his girlfriend, shot her, and stolen the truck. He'd be home free then!
hehehe.....noob
That's what happens when you don't listen. He deserved it.
your on invalids level of stupidity. just that you are a bigger fag than he is
